Dymista Reviews: What are patients saying about Dymista?
5Patient Review
4/23/2019 I had sinus surgery three times and was still constantly dealing with infections, so my ENT recommended Dymista. I've been using it nightly for six months now and have not had a single issue with my sinuses. The taste is a little strange at first, but that's the only downside I can think of. It's much better than having to take antibiotics every few months.

4/26/2022 I was first prescribed this medication by a doctor in Mexico for my allergic rhinitis-induced night coughing. I'm so pleased with how well it works; I now only use it before bed and sleep great!
5Patient Review
6/18/2022 Even though it's pricey and not covered by Australian insurance, this medication has done wonders after years of other treatments having no effect. It's worth every penny. I don't know why other reviewers mention taste or smell; all I experience is a sharp nostril-buzz that stops immediately and gets to work!
5Patient Review
1/6/2019 This product has really helped me to breathe better and sleep through the night. My husband is also happy because I don't snore anymore.
5Patient Review
4/23/2020 This nasal spray is fantastic. I can breathe through my nose and the inflammation has gone down immediately! Is it too good to be true? I don't know, but I'm going to stick with it. It also gives me energy...
